Equipment

  • Frying Pan

Ingredients

Yeast mixture

  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 pack yeast or 2 tsp

Dough

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp butter

Coating

  • 3 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup cinnamon powder

Instructions

  • Warm-up 1 cup of milk and make it lukewarm. Add 2 teaspoons of sugar, stir to dissolve it. And then add a whole pack of dried yeast into the milk mixture. Stir well and let it sit for about 10 minutes while we start to prepare other ingredients.
  • In a large bowl, add 3 cups of flour, ½ tsp of nutmeg, 2 tsp of salt, 2 tbsp of sugar. 1 egg. Melt 2 tbsp of butter. Add the yeast milk into the flour mixture and mix well. Splash some flour on the working area, knead the dough for about 5 minutes.
  • Put the dough back to the bowl, and cover it up. Let it rise for an hour. An hour later, the dough has grown to twice in size.
  • Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into a big round. And then use a knife to cut it into stick shape. Use your hands to gently rub the dough, and the outside becomes more smooth. See the video for more details.
  • Once all of the dough is set, cover up and let it rest for another 1 hour.
  • 1 hour later, heat some oil in the pan at 360º. Once the oil reaches 360º, turn the heat to low and add the donut stick into the hot oil. Once one side is done, flip to the other side. When both side becomes golden brown color, take it out from the pan.
  • To coat the donut, firstly mix 3 cups of sugar, ½ cup of ground cinnamon powder. And then mix with the donut sticks. Enjoy!
